FWIW, the hockeybuzz writer for Chicago has been talking about Sharp since early June. So I don't know why this is news. It started with references to his attitude. His latest report says that Sharp will "likely to traded by the draft." Also reporting the Hawks will try to trade for the rights to Jay McClement.

@ChrisKuc: Agent Rick Curran called @RealKyper's rumor about #Blackhawks' @10PSharp being on trading block "a complete fabrication."

Appears to be denied now......
''Patrick Sharp's agent, Rick Curran, has received multiple assurances from Chicago GM Stan Bowman that his client won't be traded.
"There's no truth to any rumor that Patrick Sharp is available to trade," Curran said. "He absolutely is not available. I had a meeting with Stan Bowman a week ago to ask him what was going to happen. He said, 'I don't know what's going to happen, but I can tell you that Patrick Sharp is not available right now.' When the Sportsnet guy, Nick Kypreos, erroneously made a statement and everyone went crazy, I called Stan again. I asked, 'Has anything changed?' He said, 'absolutely not.' He's full of [expletive]." The Blackhawks have been linked to Ryan Kesler and Jason Spezza in trade rumors and Sharp's name surfaced in the discussions, but those reports appear to be false.''

If they keep Sharp, Hossa and co.....how can they handle Toews and Kane 10-12M per year salary?

A lot of rumors going around about Sharp. Not going to get into the specifics of the rumors but they are locker-room related and that there was supposedly an altercation with a teammate. One source says that Sharp will not be back with the Hawks next season.

Prediction: Sharp will be on the move today as Chicago shaves a little salary off the cap.

That would be an interesting situation. I'd like to see Sharp in New York (of the non Rangers variety)
